| Abstract: | This thesis set out to answer the question of how to design a tool to support children with the secondary effects of dyslexia. Combating the secondary effects is important as many children experience low self-esteem, anxiety and embarrassment due to dyslexia. Therefore, literature on dyslexia and its secondary effects were explored, leading to the focus on psychoeducation and a collaboration with the company RID. Requirements were established by creating a behavioural change theory framework and participatory design with children with dyslexia and their parents. Seven cards were created from the requirements to be part of an existing psychoeducation card deck. These cards were reviewed and further ideated with the help of children and remedial teachers. The suggestions were compiled into the final design, which were tested by children. This research results in a card deck that children can independently use to expand their psychoeducation. |
